However, not every science fiction show will be remembered within a decade. Some will be left in the history books, while others will still be watched religiously....

When it comes to adventure made in the ‘80s, nothing beats The Goonies. The famous search for One-Eyed Willy’s legendary treasure isn’t the first of its genre, but it’s the most definitive and iconic of its kind. Featuring a cast of young actors who would go on to become big stars, The Goonies is as timeless as an ‘80s family movie could be. But like any childhood adventure that’s viewed through the lens of adulthood, parts ofThe Goonies just don’t hold up....

Though unlikely to get much attention throughout the major awards season, El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie was one of the year’s best for many film fans. Vince Gilligan’s long-awaited jump to feature films was, much like the original show that provided the basis for his first movie, understated yet epically proportioned and, most importantly, totally unforgettable. One of El Camino’s most exciting aspects was its heavy incorporation of Breaking Bad’s neo-western elements....

Once a man of breathtaking scope and unbridled vision, George Lucas created some of the most compelling moments in cinematic history with his Star Wars Trilogy, moments that became woven into the very fabric of Western pop culture. So popular was his original trilogy that when talk arose of him helming a prequel trilogy about Jedi Knights fighting Clone Wars in a galaxy far, far away fans could barely contain themselves....

There’s something about that moment in a film right before all your expectations come crashing down around you like a tsunami of the unexpected. Wait, who’s been dead all along? So you’re telling me it’s been the narrator? That’s– that’s not possible. These are the moments where a film has successfully pulled the wool over your eyes and played you for a fool. You feel lied to, betrayed, angry even, and you love every second of it....

Hollywood is a strange place, where movies are greenlit all the time, but for one reason or another, never seem to materialize. It’s more surprising when those movies happen to be sequels. After all, if one movie is successful, doesn’t it make sense that a follow-up could do just as well? But not every movie needs a sequel. Take, for example, Gladiator. For whatever reason, DreamWorks put a sequel to the Oscar winner into development, despite the fact that it’s main character died....

As movies are something made for the public eye, it is of no surprise when they are censored. The reasons vary from film to film. Some find coarse or suggestive language to be a problem, whereas others are opposed to sensuality. Violence in American films has especially come under fire since the MPAA’s rating system was instilled in 1968. And one genre that has contended regularly with the MPAA is no doubt horror....

With great power comes the opportunity to be other people who have great power. Over Spider-Man’s storied career, Spider-Man has taken on the mantle of numerous Marvel Comics heroes and villains. Many of these versions exist in alternate universes or imagined “What If?” scenarios. Regardless, each time Spider-Man has shown himself capable of being as strong as another hero, or as ruthless as one of his villains. Spider Lizard: Spectacular Spider-Man #39-40 Spider-Man and The Lizard have been enemies since for years, dating all the way back to Amazing Spider-Man #6....

Snappy dialogue and tear-jerking performances are all fine and dandy, but let’s be totally honest: we go to see blockbuster movies for the explosive action scenes! And while digital effects increasingly dominate this aspect of the filmmaking craft, there’s still plenty of demand for stunt performers willing to risk life and limb performing feats that actors simply aren’t capable of pulling off. Frankly, we think this is a good thing. Sure, CGI is an incredible tool – without it, many of the most impressive movie set pieces of the last few decades couldn’t have happened....

With tons of new series being released this year, as well as plenty of older, beloved series being made available on the streaming service, its no wonder that Netflix is the world’s most popular streaming service with over 137 million subscribers. In addition, Netflix’s original programming provides viewers with quality programming that they cannot find anywhere else.

Thanks to creepy horror clowns like Pennywise from It, Twisty from American Horror Story, and the infamous Joker, the reputation of these colorful and costumed performers has been forever tainted. These days, clowns are more associated with terror than amusement, dismissing the clown’s purpose for most of history: entertaining. Fortunately, there is a slew of funny television and movie clowns out there to remind the traumatized public that not all clowns are crazed killers or demented supernatural entities....
